World Economic Forum Outlines Over 65 Blockchain Use Cases for Environmental Protection

in #wef6 years ago
The World Economic Forum (WEF) foundation has outlined more than 65 blockchain use cases for solving the “most pressing” environmental challenges, in a report published September 14.

In the report, titled “Building Block(chain)s for a Better Planet,” the Switzerland-based WEF has highlighted a large number of blockchain applications that could be used to help solve the world’s most pressing environmental challenges.

The proposed applications, according to the WEF, can enhance the environment protection efforts in several ways, such as new financing models for environmental outcomes, the realization of non-financial value and natural capital, outlining more efficient and cleaner decentralized systems, and others.

In addition to the potential for improving existing processes, the report also mentions the possibility of introducing completely new blockchain solutions – so-called “game changers” – that are expected to completely transform the way major environmental issues are managed.

These “game changers” include “see through” supply chains, decentralized energy and water management systems, sustainable fundraising sources, carbon markets, and others.

According to the report, the next important step in introducing blockchain applications for environmental protection is the establishment a “responsible” and “global” blockchain ecosystem, as opposed to funding specific, separate projects.

In conclusion, the WEF also pinpointed the problem of excessive use of blockchain caused by the hype around the industry.

To solve this issue, the organization has suggested three major questions to be considered as a starting point for any blockchain-related initiative: can the technology solve a specific problem, can the risks of unintended consequences be managed acceptably, and whether a functioning ecosystem of stakeholders is available.

On September 13, the WEF published a joint report that has estimated that the distributed ledger technology (DLT) could add $1 trillion to the volume of global trade over the next ten years. The report also argued that the embracement of the technology by major governments, including the member-states of the European Union, is “unavoidable.”

#INTRODUCTION

ALCHEMY MINING GROUP, INC

DIGITAL COIN PURPOSE
In support of our #greengoldmining initiatives and for the purpose of funding our Ecuador joint venture gold mining operations, we have created a Waves digital currency "AlchemyLGCoin"© utility token listed for trading operating on Waves – (DEX) decentralized exchange proof of stake, open market blockchain platform.

AlchemyLGCoin" utility token digital currency is a negotiable title of ownership in a digital crypto form asset backed with Limited Edition gold coins crafted from responsibly processed gold ore mined and extracted from our Ecuador joint venture underground gold mine MINA SAN JUAN and is live for Crowdfunding

We own a 50% equity and board control of Alquimia y Explotación Minera San Juan Alquiexmi S.A., our joint venture Ecuador gold mining company with granted mineral rights on two gold mine concessions with operations on Bella Rica Codigo: 15 in the Bella Rica mining area, western Azuay province, municipality of Camilo Ponce Enríquez Ecuador.

The Bella Rica Codigo: 15 concession has a running water stream and has been developed with buildings, equipment, operational facilities and being artisanally mined and exploited by our joint venture partner blasting a 1.3 Km main underground tunnel “MINA SAN JUAN” with 2 extensions extracting ore from 3 identified veins of 5 known veins producing gold balls and dores since 2012.

SYSTEMIC ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEM
Environmental Impact of Artisanal Small-scale Gold Mining (ASGM) in Southern Ecuador is causing considerable environmental impacts, the most important of which are related to the discharge of metals, metalloids and cyanide into adjacent rivers.

Studies have shown that the gold workers were exposed to intoxicatingly high levels of mercury with 85% of them suffered neurological symptoms, such as tremors, and 44%–56% of them experienced restricted fields of vision, slow reflexes, sensory disturbances, unbalanced rigidity, and ataxia.

The majority of Hg emitted by gold smelters being deposited within 1 km of the emission source contaminating the urban areas with a mix of lead, mercury, manganese, and various cyanides eventually flushed into the river system poisoning the water and killing all aquatic life in the area.

Responsible gold ore processing begins with our own gold ore mined from MINA SAN JUAN the Bella Rica mining district Camillo Ponce western Azuay province Rio de Oro Ecuador.
